Chapter 343: Three Parties Join Hands
Now that the Flame Dragon Armor was there to distract Ning Yang, Xue Long was no longer worried that he would have to shoulder the task of defending against him single-handedly.
After hearing Nie Tian’s words, Xue Long, who had been messed up really badly by Ning Yang, shared his determination to seriously injure or even kill Ning Yang.
“Go!” With a thought, Xue Long commanded his sword to fly out of his ring of holding.
As it did, it slashed in midair, sending out a ten-meter long sword light, which pierced directly towards Ning Yang’s chest!
Ning Yang, who had hacked onto the Flame Dragon Armor’s surface with his golden sword, was attempting to destroy the Flame Dragon Armor’s internal structure according to his understanding of the profound truths of metal power.
When Xue Long’s sword light sailed through the air and pierced towards him, he had no choice but to spare some of his attention to defend against it.
“Golden Armor Shield!” With an effortless move of his hand, Ning Yang cast out a shield glittering with brilliant, golden light.
The golden shield was hexagonal. It rotated in the air and immediately formed a wall of golden light, blocking the path of Xue Long’s ten-meter long sword light.
“Split!” Upon Xue Long’s cold harrumph, his sword light split into three smaller sword lights, two of which bypassed the golden light wall.
Like two swift fish, they flanked Ning Yang, harboring the intentions to pierce into both sides of his ribcage.
“You’re just too stubborn!” With a ice-cold look in his eyes, Ning Yang made a grabbing motion towards Xue Long’s sword lights with his empty hand, as if he were channeling something.
In the next moment, countless golden lights shone out of his palm, and a strange force was born, which forcibly bent Xue Long’s two sword lights and changed their directions.
They whizzed by Ning Yang’s side, one from the left and one from the right, when they were only one meter away from him.
“Hmm?” The tips of Ning Yang’s eyebrows rose as he seemed to sense an anomaly, so he rapidly turned around to check.
Watery ripples began to spread out gently in the empty space behind him.
All of a sudden, four slender swords appeared from within the ripples.
Sharp sounds rang out as the four swords seemed to have pierced through the barrier of space and flown towards Ning Yang like four bolts of lightning.
“Ethereal Swords! Senior Martial Sister!” Nie Tian exclaimed.
PUFF! PUFF!
Xue Long’s two sword lights pierced into the desert ground. As they did, a blue shadow appeared out of nowhere.
Ning Yang let out a cold harrumph as he retracted his golden spiritual sword from the Flame Dragon Armor. “Are you courting death?!”
With a few graceful swings of the sword, he sent out one golden sword light after another towards the incoming Ethereal Swords.
The Ethereal Swords flickered constantly as they traveled through the air, disappearing in one moment and appearing in the next.
However, Ning Yang’s golden sword lights seemed to possess their own spirit and awareness. With great precision, they rapidly sought out the Ethereal Swords.
CLANK! CLANK! CLANK! CLANK!
Even though the Ethereal Swords hid themselves in the void, they were located, bombarded by the golden sword lights, and brought down from midair.
Pei Qiqi let out a muffled groan as blood trickled down the corner of her exquisite mouth.
WHOOSH!
At that moment, Nie Tian rapidly formed a spiritual energy ball and cast it towards Ning Yang.
Ning Yang didn’t even turn around before a dazzling, golden lightning bolt shot out of his back.
When the spiritual energy ball was still ten meters away from him, it was penetrated by the fierce, golden lightning bolt and exploded.
However, as Ning Yang spared his attention to deal with Pei Qiqi and Nie Tian, Xue Long’s one remaining sword light finally penetrated the defensive light wall created by Ning Yang’s golden shield.
As it happened, Ning Yang’s expression finally flickered slightly.
Nie Tian, who was about to summon strength to form more spiritual energy balls, suddenly sensed a strong attractive force being born within the Flame Dragon Armor, which was within arms-reach from Ning Yang.
In the next moment, his flame power was forcibly pulled away from his madly rotating vortex of flame power.
The flame power seemed to have turned into a river of flames and infused into the Flame Dragon Armor in a split second.
As soon as his flame power poured into the Flame Dragon Armor, he was struck by a strong feeling that the connection between him and the Flame Dragon Armor had become unprecedentedly strong!
At the same time, he noticed that his psychic power was also being pulled away from him at an amazing speed.
SHEW!
By casting a short-range Starshift, Nie Tian suddenly appeared in a location close to Ning Yang.
The Flame Dragon Armor flew back to him after sensing his appearance in the vicinity.
However, unlike the times before, the Flame Dragon Armor didn’t return to his bracelet of holding. Instead, it descended upon him from above his head and fell on his body.
Scalding heat immediately came from the heavy, mountain-like suit of armor.
Standing not far from Ning Yang, Nie Tian experienced severe pain in his knees as his whole body sank slightly, as if he had been hammered into the ground. Like a pair of spears, his feet pierced deeply into the sand.
Panting nonstop, he struggled to channel his flesh power towards his legs. Only by doing that was he barely able to withstand the terrifying weight of the Flame Dragon Armor.
At that moment, raging flames were unleashed from the Flame Dragon Armor’s crimson surface, while numerous fiery patterns and seals slithered on it like living dragons or snakes.
But for some reason, the blazing flames unleashed by the Flame Dragon Armor only caused slight discomfort to Nie Tian.
